The incentives locked together.

The reason to love your neighbor as yourself is because your neighbor is yourself just with a different headset.

Reading Plamper’s book and writing this review in a time of rising right-wing authoritarian politics—in which migration is weaponized to spread fear, prejudice, and hate—offers an inspiring reaffirmation of our shared humanity. The numerous detailed accounts and personal histories he presents serve as powerful testimonies to a lived reality that cannot be erased or ignored. Diverse backgrounds and religions shape daily lives in Germany, adapting and contributing in countless ways. By shifting the focus to those who actively form German society—despite often being labeled as “the other” or simply “migrants”—Plamper challenges exclusionary narratives. His meticulous documentation of migration stories underscores not only the enduring presence of these communities but also their role in shaping Germany’s future.

when I think of the MSAD and I think of the CIA, I kind of think of the Genovves crime family and the Gambino crime family that they're always working together.

I’ve met a number of important people through GRC who have become central to my own project ecosystem.

Religio is… I'm using it in a spiritual sense, [in] the sense of a pre-egoic, ultimately a post-egoic, binding that simultaneously grounds the self and its world.

Just this week I co-facilitated such a process in Colombia, last week in Brazil at the pre-opening events in Rio (G20), and also with other colleagues earlier this year in Chile (cross-sector), and in Indonesia (with the newly elected government and cabinet).

story of getting lost

We are all together in this, alone.

It’s no wonder that fewer than half of citizens can be bothered to vote

Earlier this week, during a seminar at Schumacher College that included an exploration into what a Citizens Action Network might entail, a student wondered if we’d ever heard of South Africa’s CANs movement. No, we answered, we had not…

A podcast about resilience inspired Caleb Chan to compose this theme music, incorporating a heartbeat and a world music influence.

If you would like to make a code change, go ahead. Fork the repository, open a pull request. Do this early, and talk about the change you want to make. Maybe we can work together on it.

This is where all our learnings about semantics, outputs, signals and the DSL come together.

Secondary buttons are the ‘go back’ to the primary button’s ‘next’, or the ‘cancel’ button to the ‘submit’ button

In the past, I tried to create some proof of concepts with svelte, but I usually ended up missing some of the features that RxJS provides. Now that I know that they complement each other well, I will grab this combination more often

We are trying to go forward

Meanwhile I'll use the Spectre x360 with Windows 10, which, despite flaws, is a sweet combination. But the smug superiority I was planning to unleash on my hipster Mac friends will have to wait.

Declare Outlook holidays. Invite people to find other ways to collaborate -- for an hour a day, or a day a week -- using the many other tools available.

Google's collaboration suite is powerful, but it certainly isn't a first-class citizen of the Web. Elsewhere, Web collaboration is evolving.

Why not enable Slack to search Google Groups directly? Can you, for example, add Google Groups as a provider of results to Slack's search system?

As Web pages become apps, they will also become collaborative spaces where anyone can annotate -- and the rules of engagement will take a while to work themselves out

Resistance to Slack was predictably futile, and now we are assimilated. I was not among the resisters. Nothing floats my boat like powerful team-enabling software, and I'm having a ball exploring the nooks and crannies of Slack.

I could automate that OAuth interaction with Selenium WebDriver. But that's beyond geeky. I just want to FTP some files! There's got to be an easier way.

I've been spending a lot of time lately learning how to use Selenium WebDriver, the premier automation toolkit for functional testing of Web software.

the new mantra, productivity, requires systems optimized for people working together in shared spaces

Emerging specs for Web annotation envision standard ways to annotate not only text but also images, audio, and video. As enterprise-grade tools emerge for capturing and annotating meetings, I hope they'll interoperate in standard ways. I also hope they'll be as easy to use as Hangouts on Air.

At the core of that book was a notion that for teams -- and for whole companies -- it would be useful to flip the default privacy setting on electronic communication in the workplace.

As bandwidth to the cloud increases, could an ancient copy of FoxPro become useful again?

When Facebook announced its impending shutdown of FriendFeed, the chatter was predictable: It was the long-expected end of yet another failed social network. That doesn't begin to explain what FriendFeed's real value was, why that mattered, and how it might be recreated.

an objective set for the Sprint that can be met through the implementation of Product Backlog. It provides guidance to the Development Team on why it is building the Increment. It is created during the Sprint Planning meeting. The Sprint Goal gives the Development Team some flexibility regarding the functionality implemented within the Sprint. The selected Product Backlog items deliver one coherent function, which can be the Sprint Goal. The Sprint Goal can be any other coherence that causes the Development Team to work together rather than on separate initiatives.

People learn by imitation. If you're a natural automator, modeling that behavior within your team or organization may be a way to lead by example.

After twenty years of service I'm pleased to announce a complete rewrite of wiki as a single page application with a distributed database
